Clubhouse for fans of sports and healthy lifestyle: what you can do in the new social network

For example, talk to Ilon Musk or Jared Leto. But that, of course, is far from everything.

Clubhouse is a social network launched in 2020. In early February 2021, it began to rapidly gain popularity in Russia. The application has several features that fueled the interest of the audience.

First, you can register only by invitation from another network user – open registration will become available later, the developers promise. Secondly, Clubhouse has neither private messages nor pages as such. Communication takes place in shared chats or rooms, exclusively in real time. Any user can join a room, and its creators give everyone the opportunity to speak during the conversation.

What can such a social network be useful for sports fans and supporters of a healthy lifestyle? Let’s find out what you can do in Clubhouse.

Communicate on the topics of sports and healthy lifestyle with experts

When registering, the user notes interests, choosing them from the proposed tags. Based on the answers, the social network’s algorithms suggest suitable themed rooms. One room can have up to five thousand people.

Having found a suitable conversation, you can learn new information on topics of interest or, by “raising your hand” and getting permission from the speakers, ask them a question or express your own opinion.

Practice and listen

There are no pictures or videos on Clubhouse. The format of the social network is quite suitable for listening to speeches during training, without being distracted by images, as it would be with live broadcasts and streams on other services.

Conversations in the app are somewhat reminiscent of podcasts, but there is still a fundamental difference between them: the latter are recorded in advance, while all the discussions in Clubhouse take place exclusively online, it’s a live speech at the moment. Besides, by asking a question, you can change the direction of the discussion, which would be impossible with podcasts. In addition, you can’t record the conversation.

Meet like-minded people

Since access to the resource is by invitation only, so far there are not as many people in Clubhouse as there would be with free access. The Russian-speaking segment is still small. But if you speak foreign languages, you can talk to people from other countries. Perhaps socializing in themed online rooms with those who share your views will develop into closer acquaintance.
